    Wow if this is their fifth appearance, that means it was five years ago that I was at Superbooth. I remember the Super 6 there. I really love what George and UDO do. His passion for synths really comes through in these beautiful instruments. That user-upgradable keybed is an awesome idea.

    Amazing, would really love to get my hands on one of these. But as a Super 6 owner, I still love that synth to bits; it's great to see the team at UDO are continuing to show it some love, even in the wake of these upcoming mightier synths. Just the fact that they're doing big software updates is awesome, but that Super Touch 49 swappable keyboard option blew my mind!! Will definitely look into that when it's out. 😳 love your passion and dedication Mr George Hearn!! And to the whole team at UDO, keep up the great work!

    Amazing instrument. I think The HUGE space above the keyboard, below the controls, is BEGGING for a slider control to turn this into a modern day CS80 ;-) Amazing as it is. This would be the cherry on the pie though ;-)

  • @payt01

    Awesome new synth. That big empty space kindof leaves a lot of space for something like a ribbon, like the Gemini has. I guess it was too much of a hassle to completely redesign the dimensions of the synth to fit the super 8, so the dimensions of the Gemini were kept, but with fewer controls. Just guessing here :)

    Is it the same filter as the S6? Curious why I would upgrade. I hear the same sound as the S6. Also, the faders are smaller than the S6, which might make it hard to dial in sounds.

    How can they call it portable with all those massive blank spaces? The Super 6 supports Poly AT, why did it not get a Poly AT keyboard? Oh yeah so they can sell a slightly upgraded version with the features it should have had in the first place so we can buy the previous one and the new one exactly as I predicted.

    Good lord! So much amazing stuff to process in this video! please let there be gun metal gray of the super 8. I know they call it black but it’s really gunmetal gray the super 6 in it is absolutely stunning. The blue to me makes it look so cheap. I can’t stand white and these other colors they’re using like the new arturia polybrute is so unappealing because of the khaki soccer mom color. if you’re in front of this every day, you want it to be beautiful.

  • @EvilWorldOfGreed-do1ox
    @EvilWorldOfGreed-do1ox 2 месяца назад

    Remember when synths cost just over a grand, we even had large touch screens build in like on the Korg Triton? This could have been a 3rd of the size with a re-arrangement of knobs and sliders buttons and switches minus the huge blank space above the keyboard. Extremely thin sheet metal also. Sounded like a VSTi, really quiet demo, not very exciting. For £3,000 we can have a collection of super synth VSTi synths and effects much better sounding and still have pennies left.

      What? The original Triton retailed for £1799 when it came out in 1999 (from the original Sound on Sound review). Adjusted for inflation that's £3300 in today's money, which is $4200 USD. Are you seriously arguing that having everything on a touchscreen on a hardware subtractive synth is better than having near knob-per-function control? The Jupiter 80 is exactly that, and while a superbly powerful synth, it's main weakness is the UI BECAUSE everything is in the touchscreen. I have a Super 6, and no, it's not 'thin' sheet metal. It's built like a freaking tank. I'd chuck it around on stage without a care in the world if I wasn't worried I'd scratch it!
